Isabel was an absolutely amazing sitter for our pup! We really appreciated the updates with pictures everyday and the consistent communication that allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Stella was in great hands. Our house was well cared for and tidy when we returned. Would 100% book Isabel again in the future!

I highly recommend Isabel! She took great care of Sabre and he was looking for her last night to cuddle.

Excellent, truly excellent. Isabel was absolutely fantastic with our house full of animals! They kept us fully updated with how everyone was doing several times a day and sent lots of pictures. We had never left the dogs and cats with a sitter before and any nerves or worries I had were quickly forgotten! They were very attentive and handled our energetic bunch with ease. The dogs looked so happy and like they were having a wonderful time, and our notoriously shy cats warmed right up to Isabel immediately! They even dealt with an unexpected situation when one of the dogs uncovered a nest of baby rabbits, and did so in really calm and professional way. And they were extremely thorough in ensuring the dogs and the rabbits were all safe. Our animals all clearly had a great time with them. Will absolutely be rebooking!

Isabel was an incredible sitter. I definitely recommend! I received pictures and updates on a consistent basis and it was clear throughout my time away that Riley and Raisin were in such good hands. Thank you so much Isabel. I'll certainly reach out again in the future ?

I will prioritize your pets safety and well being. I am passionate about playing with cats and dogs and I adore meeting new fur babies to love.

Information Isabel J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know your pets typical schedule and I will follow it to the best of my ability. I believe it is important to keep things routine for pets as it eliminates undue stress on our furry friends! For new clients: I accept house sitting bookings after doing a meet and greet. This will be at a local park or your home depending on your comfort levels. At the meet and greet I will have you walk me through their general routine, schedule, and anything else I should be aware of. I’ll also need to get their vet contact information for emergency purposes at the meet and greet. We will also discuss general arrangements and boundaries if I will be staying in your home while you are away.

A typical day

I love to play with dogs and make sure they get the exercise they need. Tug of war, fetch, or setting up enriching toys—I love it all! I am a long walk lover and will always stop to let a pup take in a good sniff! I also have dog training experience so if your dog is high energy and you’re working on reactivity or leash training I am capable of reinforcing and continuing any training!
